CentralI1 Railroad Company to furnish cars sufficient to carry away the of the coal mines of Ohio shanty For the last eighteen months they have worked on an average of but two days a week and were It na l for the fact that they are being eta tended credit by the company stores many would be on the brink of approachk reason that their limit in the mat Iter of credit has almost been reach ed and tho day Is not far distant when the company stores It IIs feared will turn a deaf ear to the men and women who seek supplies without money Although conditions are border Ing on the critical they are not as desperate as one not knowing the thrift of the miners would Imagine There have been but one or two cases of absolute destitution and these have been speedily relieved by the more fortunate the moment they were discovered there being a fellow feeling among the men wh6 work underground here that iIB rarely found among other classes offt people The constant danger attacking to the work of tho miner ls said to be responsible for this and the men of McIIcnr and adjoining mining towns would divide their last crust with a fellow workman Were all the miners entirely de pendent upon the mines for their support the limit in Ohio county would have been reached long ago but such Is not the case Wheni the mines are being worked II fullIII time the miners leave them I oclock In the afternoon and sometimes jI earlier and return to their Ihomes where they put In their time during the summer working gar dens and looking after stock suchII as milch cows and pigs I the miners or their wives raise I chickens making their table In the summer cost comparatively little In the fall they kill hogs putting away their own meat explaining to a large degree the reason why the crisishas not been reached here before I now Figuring solely upon the absolute necessities of life the cost per I month of maintaining the average miners family five In number 1 IsII 476i while during the past teen months the average miner ba i been unable to earn more than 20 j a month showing a balance of 2560 on the wrong side of ledger at the end of each theII days Robert Yoham who worked In the coal mines In and about McHenry for the past ten years Itemized the cost of living as j followsRent per month 700 I Doctors fee per month 100II Dues to union per month 100I Groceries Smithing 75cIIIncidentals Including clothing 500 Coal 390 Total 4565 This Is the very cheapest a fam ily of five can live Yoham said and the average jnnern family consists of five persona There are soma who haveas many ns ten In family but In such instances trgfe- is usually more than ono breadwinner some of the boys being able toholp their Saddles Not only are the miners and those dependent upon them for I I I trade affected by theallesed short CenltTIlII I i operators are loslnt monov as wellI They have plenty of orders n man who hestlvedtln McHenry for years said but they cant get the Care to fill them Whether the mine is In operation or notthere iIs a fixed cost of about 75a day at theIconscIgoingIIt s to the Interest of the operators to keep the miners about their plants in the hope that present conditions will be carryingthetent of thousands of dollars The company stores have credit ed the men to the extent of 5000 whoity for the last twenty years The men have no fault to find with the operators They are doing all iIn their power to relieve conditions i but their hands are tied They tell tne that they have the orders to coal enough to keep the men busy theyrget the cars but they cant The railroad company Just wont furnish them coachedI a ollt continued where the begltsupport from the men I cannot blame them The stage has now arrived where a wo oyestcompany store for a dollar Is given a half It is the beginning of the end and unless we receive Immediate relief the crash will come speedily Those In charge of the various mines In Ohio county are silent con corning the causo for present conditions Their lips are sealed said Uncle Charlie Vance because they fear the railroad They have been told by the mining company heads to say nothing for fear the railroad will go a step farther thanII It has already gone and they are following orders It would be n much as their jobs are worth to disobey When asked why It was that the railroad company was unable to supply the mines with enough cars Ho handle their output Uncle Charlie considered the sage of the mIners In Ohio county stroked his chin knowingly and said In a wits per that there was a belief on the part of some that the railroad Is at tempting to coerce the operators Into selling to It at the railroad- own price all their coal I Of course I dont know he said but It seems funny to me thattll the three mines In Muhlenberg county that dispose of all their coalI to the railroad are supplied with allII IIthe cars they need Another oddljI I about the matter Is that just before the miners and opera tors reached their wage scale agreement last summer and there Wns a possibility of a tieup at the mines empty coal cars were standing a sidings In and about McHenry allI the time The company says It hasnt got the cars and maybe It hasnt It is furnishing them In butII and Illinois and to nonunion mines OWKXSIIOHO HOY lUSTlKIED IX KILLINGI PLAYMATE IOwensboro Ky Nov 30Thc- ourtroom was packed with a crow

Burden saw the man fall and ran and notifi ed parties what had happened and the neighbors soon came on the scene and discovered that It was young White who had evidently only attempted to frighten his

a Time I But It Has Done Wonders for Corn WHAT FAKMEKS SHOULD KKAD In the November American Mag azine appears an article about Pro fessor P G Holden of the Iowa State College of Agriculture who taught the People of his State how to raise more and better corn Since be began his work nine years ago the average yield of corn in Iowa has increased 27000000 bushels annually The following is an ex tractIf you were told that one man had Increased tho wealth of one State by thirty million dollars you would be Inclined to be skeptical yet that was the declaration of Governor Cummins of Iowa with ref erence to the contributions of Pro fessor It G Holden to the knowl edge of corn raising In that State Professor Holden occupies a chair j 1 1Inthe Iowa State College of Agri culture and outside of this holds a unique position which hasbeen aptly characterized as that of the l evangelist of scientific agriculture He has done more than anyone man to popularize the work of tho Iowa Agriculture College among the farmers there He soon dis covered In his college work that the farmers were not going to learn how to farm but on the other hand had very little use for the scientific farmer To change this condition became the professors ambition His thinking on the sub ject evolved big Ideas which resulted in the establishment of the farmers short courses specialseed corn trains the county demonstra tion work on the county poor farm the State corn shod and finally the I i National Corn Exposition Thes have made It possible for him to go to the farmers Instead of wafting j for them to come to him I enthusiastj jIous His convictions are deep I seated and anything ho believes In he can make others see as he does For this reason he was able to go to presidents of railways and con vince them that It was to their In terest to run special seedcorn trains and pay all the expenses The special trains would have been failures If Professor Holden i had not known how to tell want he knew Ho did most of the speak lag until his assistants had learnedI how to talk to farmers In their own language Farmers will accept scientific facts from Professor Hol den as readily and gladly as children I will take sugarcoated pills Part of his success Is due to the fact that he exploits only one Idea at a time When he went out on his first seedcorn train his slogan was Test your seed corn saying nothing about the preparation of tho soil fertilization or cultiva tion He asked the farmer to study his own cornfield and ho would discover that about one fourth of the stalks were loafing around all summer doing nothing This wad due to poor germination of the seed and the latter required as much cultrx jlpn and care as the thrifty stalk4 The effectiveness of this sort of teaching Is
